"Sweet Jasmine Has Waited a Year for a Home"
Jasmine is a beautiful five-year-old Pitty mix who will soon mark her first year anniversary at the SPCA. This girl has been waiting so long to find a loving home! She is such a nice girl, she deserves a life of love. She has a tail that never stops wagging which shows off her friendly, outgoing personality. She's a playful girl who loves a game of fetch. CHECK OUT HER VIDEO! She was given up by an owner who no longer wanted her. I guess he no longer had time in his life for this loving dog. That is hard to understand. Jasmine is always friendly but she must be a little stressed in the shelter because she has had trouble gaining weight. But given a good forever home, she will thrive. She is house-broken and has lived with kids older than ten before. She would prefer to be your only dog. Come visit the SPCA and ask to meet Jasmine. If you are interested in this dog, please call the shelter at 302 856-6361 to make sure she is still available. This information was current as of 2/2/12.
WONDERFUL CATS NEED HOMES
The SPCA is has some wonderful cats that have been there for a long time (over a year in some cases). There are many adult cats who are loving, laid back felines ready to share their lives with you. They are house-trained cats who are well settled and aren't about to climb your drapes or terrorize your dog. Kittens certainly are sweet but adopting an adult has many advantages. You know what you are getting since their personalities are already formed and ready for you to see. All cats are neutered and ready for great homes. Check out their pictures on the website and please come in and meet them for yourself.

Adopting a friend
All dog and cat adoptions through the Delaware SPCA include neutering, microchipping, a free wellness exam through a participating veterinarian and initial distemper and rabies shots. Cats are given a feline leukemia test and dogs over six months of age are given a heartworm test prior to adoption. Adoption fees for dogs and puppies 6 months of age and up is $100 and up, while young puppies are $150 and up. Kittens and cats up to 2 years of age are $75, while cats over 2 are only $50. All animals are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. Spaying or neutering your pet through a veterinarian can cost hundreds of dollars. So not only are you giving a deserving animal a loving home and getting neutering and microchipping services at a fraction of what it would cost elsewhere - you are also supporting the Delaware SPCA and its mission of preventing cruelty to our four-legged friends.Come Visit Us!
VACCINATION & RABIES CLINICS are being held regularly. They are a bargain. Please call the shelter to ask about the fees and upcoming dates.
